ECS (electronic controlled suspension) malfunction
warning message
If the ECS warning message may
come on, you may have a problem
with the ECS system. We recom-
mend that the system be checked by
an authorized Kia dealer.✽✽
NOTICE
Make sure there are no objects under the vehicle before changing
the vehicle height.
A click sound may be heard while operating ECS, but these condi-
tions are normal and indicate that
ECS is functioning properly.
Depending on the outside temper- ature the vehicle height may be
different.
When the vehicle is parked with one side of the vehicle lifted or vehicle
speed is suddenly accelerated/decel-
erated or the steering wheel is sud-
denly turned, the height may not
temporarily be adjusted. This is to
protect the system.
When one side of the vehicle was lifted with a jack, the height may
not temporarily be adjusted. The
ECS will operate normally when
the engine is turned on again or
when the vehicle is accelerated.
When the vehicle is not driven for a long period of time, vehicle
height may get low. The ECS will
operate normally when the engine
is turned on. ✽✽
NOTICE
If the battery is discharged, the ECS warning message may comes
on to protect the system.
When the height is adjusted repeatedly, the height may not
temporarily be adjusted for the
compressor overheats. This is to
prevent damage to related parts.
